ICYMI [EXCLUSIVE] Lagos waste crisis: Sanwo-Olu orders LAWMA MD to resign
Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu ordered the Managing Director of LAWMA, Dr Muyiwa Gbadegesin, to resign due to dissatisfaction with the slow pace of waste evacuation and failure to follow directives on the ongoing waste crisis. The governor had declared a state of emergency on waste management after visiting the Olusosun dumpsite but was upset that heaps of refuse continued to litter roads, streets, residential areas and drainage channels across the state.
